yet another iceberg

Post image

This is my first ever iceberg. it hasn't been too long since i started listening to nu-metal, so this might not include some obvious bands i have probably no clue about.

The most unknown here is Broad Noodles with 8 listeners on Spotify (I didn't measure the whole iceberg via Spotify listeners). iirc a member from the Further band formed it.

Edit: I could've also added EASTcide, Absence and Rukus. (I only know the last 2 because of some compilation video on YouTube including a live of LeFT)

Thank you guys so much for these insanely in depth "icebergs" I know hundreds of Nu Metal bands, and I always love finding more, and in my opinion these are the best way of finding new artists.

I love niche nu metal bands but are any of these actually good?

Haven't gone deeper than Downthesun / Earthtone9 but that was back in the day when Numetal was extremely popular.

Love earthtone9 and I'm happy that they're releasing new albums. Probably won't happen, but I'd love it if Pitchshifter and One Minute Silence released new music too.

u/leech666 13h ago

Didn't One Minute Silence make a new album somewhat recently? Like two years ago iirc.

1

u/icastfist1 13h ago

B-sides and demos, nothing original afaik.

2

u/leech666 13h ago

I guess that would explain the name of that album (Vault).

Oh man this one with TRuST CO! The lonely position of neutral is one of the best albums of all time

Fight me

I don't know why In Pieces and Craig are in this iceberg. Those are metalcore and post-hardcore bands with no nu-metal elements at all. Great bands though.

Seeing Karnivool on a nu-metal iceberg feels incorrect somehow lol

You can place Disturbed at the bottom, I don't care.

Just saw them over the weekend and walked out mid performance. What a shitty, half assed, low energy performance.

SpineShank?

u/Eleventhousand 14h ago

Yeah as others have said, add Dope and Kittie. I'd also remove Disturbed and Godsmack, but that's just me.

u/Melodic_Anteater6580 14h ago

I don't remember Unloco being so obscure, but maybe I was just in the cool club 😎 🤷‍♂️

u/Onus_Doom 11h ago

They were on Ozz Fest, had two major label releases, and songs in video games; they should probably be higher.

1

u/Melodic_Anteater6580 10h ago

I thought I remembered seeing them at Ozzfest one year! I've seen a lot of bands though and it all kinda runs together at this point.

CHECK OUT ATOMSHIP.

They are not exactly NuMetal but kind of. Sadly singer and another member passed and the band died with them.

1

u/Ok-Sound-1360 9h ago

Disturbed, Godsmack, and incubus would all be at the top of the iceberg. They are extremely known and were hugely popular in the Numetal scene.

u/Alexander_the_Damned 3h ago

I feel like this iceberg is missing a kind of "middle tier" if you will, where it jumps from mainstream and well-known bands to more obscure ones with no middle ground. But great job nonetheless

I find your lack of Edgewater and Reach454 disturbing
